Ramada by Wyndham Watertown/Thousand Islands NY

2/10 Terrible

"Bad experience ever. The staff were rude. Definitely not recommended. "

Comfort Inn & Suites Watertown - 1000 Islands

6/10 Okay

"The room was clean and in good condition. The AC barely worked and what sounded like the fridge was making horrible sounds. The shower head had good pressure but terrible water distribution. Lots of crying kids and barking dogs, and overall just a ton of noise from the hotel systems overall. Bed was pretty comfy and the pillows were great. Main reason for 3 stars overall is due to the excessive noise made by the hotel itself which made it hard to sleep and the AC having a very hard time cooling the room."

Candlewood Suites Watertown Fort Drum by IHG

4/10 Poor

"I rarely leave bad reviews, but my stay at Candlewood Suites Watertown was honestly very disappointing. Carla at the front desk was kind and accommodating, and she was probably the only positive part of the experience. The room smelled terrible, like a closed unused room full of dust and mold. There were spider webs everywhere, flies inside the room, and the living room area smelled very bad, like it had not been cleaned or used properly for a long time. The curtains were broken, the windows were covered with dead flies and thick dust, and even the exhaust fan was packed with dust and dirt. It was obvious the room was not being maintained properly. The suite setup was also inconvenient because the AC and heater were only in the living room and barely reached the bedroom. I had to leave the bedroom door open the whole time just to get airflow, which made it difficult to sleep because the room kept getting too cold or too warm. I called the front desk to ask if they had a portable heater or fan available, but they told me they had none. Their only solution was to downgrade me into a smaller room while still charging me the same price. I was also surprised that housekeeping is only done once a week. I ended up getting sick with severe allergies and fever symptoms. I was visiting my military partner after 6 months apart, and this experience ruined our stay. I should have taken more evidence, but the staff already knows these issues exist."

Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Watertown-Thousand Island by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel truly impressed me. The room was exceptionally clean and well-maintained, seriously a comfortable and relaxing environment. when I had a small issue, The staff went above and beyond in every way—friendly, attentive, and ready to help. Their incredible hospitality made the experience amazing! Overall, the service was beyond awesome, and I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a pleasant and worry-free stay."

1827 Waterfront Mansion, Hot Tub, Fireplace, Huge Deck-River Overlook, fast WiFi

10/10 Excellent

"This was absolutely one of our favorite VRBO rentals ever.... The house is so warm and inviting, tastefully decorated, and all I can say about the property is WOW.... The history and the warmth of the home made this a memory we will cherish. My wife said it was the BEST Mother's day ever. The warm glow of the fireplace at night was perfect. Walking along the river, enjoying the serenity of the place was so relaxing and peaceful. Talk about a value for your money. Thank you so much for everything, our host were extremely accommodating since we were up there working and you made our week. "
